CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE— 2017–2018 REGULAR SESSION

Assembly Bill No. 268


Introduced by Assembly Member Waldron

February 01, 2017


An act to amend Section 17552 of the Government Code, relating to state mandates.


LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 268, as introduced, Waldron. State mandates.
The California Constitution requires the state to provide a subvention of funds to reimburse local government for the costs of that new program or higher level of service, with specified exceptions, when the Legislature or a state agency mandates a new program or higher level of service on any local government, including school districts. Existing law establishes the sole and exclusive procedure by which a local agency or school district may claim reimbursement for these costs.
This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to this provision.
Vote: MAJORITY   Appropriation: NO   Fiscal Committee: NO   Local Program: NO  

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:


SECTION 1.

 Section 17552 of the Government Code is amended to read:

17552.
 This chapter shall provide the sole and exclusive procedure by which a local agency or school district in this state may claim reimbursement for costs mandated by the state as required by Section 6 of Article XIII B of the California Constitution.
